Title: Biocidal applications of concentrated aqueous bromine chloride solutions
Inventor: MOORE ROBERT M JR
IPC: A01N41/08
Filed: 2005-01-04
Granted: 2008-04-24
Abstract: Methods for disinfecting surfaces and for sanitizing bodies of water using a single-feed, bromine-based biocide are described. These methods use concentrated liquid biocide compositions comprising biocidally active bromine as the biocide. Also described is a process of producing the concentrated liquid biocide composition: mixed together are (a) bromine chloride and (b) an aqueous solution of alkali metal salt of sulfamic acid having a pH of at least about 7, in amounts such that (i) the active bromine content of the composition is at least about 100,000 ppm (wt/wt), and (ii) the atom ratio of nitrogen to active bromine in the composition is greater than 0.93. Use of bromine chloride as the source of the active bromine in the process is advantageous because in the resulting aqueous compositions, all of the bromine of the bromine chloride is made available as active bromine in solution. In other words, the chlorine of the bromine chloride is converted in the process to dissolved alkali metal chloride salt, thereby liberating all of the bromine as the active bromine content of the biocidal composition.

Inventor: MEINHARD FRANGENBERG
IPC: B02C4/32
Filed: 2006-02-07
Granted: 2011-06-30
Abstract: The aim of the invention is to configure a twin-roll machine, in particular a roll press for the bed milling of a granular material, comprising two rotatably mounted rolls (11, 12) that are separated by a nip and driven in opposite directions in such a way that the hydraulic cylinders that are used to exert the roll compression force no longer need to be supported on a heavy-duty machine frame, which complicates the replacement of the rolls, for example, in the event of a repair. To achieve this, the hydraulic cylinders (15, 16) are located in such a way that they respectively engage with both the bearing housings (14) of one roll (12) and the opposing bearing housings (13) of the other roll (11), forming a closed milling compression force system without the need for a closed machine frame that bears the roll compression forces.
